Absolute Dance Company
Tuition Payment Instructions

You WILL NOT be receiving a monthly bill/statement from our office for your monthly tuition.  All payments are due on the first of each calendar month.  If at any time you would like a printed statement of your account you may request one.  I have included a payment receipt record for your convenience.  Please note your payments as you make them for the school year.  Monthly statements will be mailed for overdue balances only.

Our students are in our database alphabetically by their last name.  Many of our students have different last names from parents and/or grandparents who are paying for dance expenses.  In order for us to properly credit your account, the following details will be important for us to know each time you make a payment.

            When making a payment by check, please include the following information in the memo of your check.  A receipt is available upon request.

                                    1. Student(s) First & Last Name. (Very important!!)

                                    2. State what you are paying for:

                                                            Monthly Tuition (State the month)

                                                            Style/Day/Time of class

                                                            Dance Supplies (Shoes, Leotard etc.)

Tuition and Payment Information

 

You will be paying for the entire school year of 36 weeks of classes held over 10 months September - June. This is an average of 3.6 classes per month. You are not paying for scheduled school vacations and Holidays. Please see our published calendar in this booklet. The Registration Fee is due with the September tuition. All other months are due on the first of each calendar month.  New students joining after September will have their class charges pro-rated from the time they join.   We accept cash or checks only.  Sorry, no debit/credit cards.

 The calendar in each month will vary depending upon which day you have your class.   Some months you may have 2 or 3 classes, others 4 or 5.  Everyone will have had 36 classes over the ten months.  If for any reason you decide to discontinue your classes, you are not obligated to pay for the balance of the school year.  

 We have a very fair policy regarding our payment for tuition and subsequent assessment of late fees.  Payments are due on the first of each calendar month. There is no late fee assessed until after 15th of the month.  Any account unpaid after the fifteenth of the month will have a late charge fee of $10 assessed.  Payments may be made at the studio or by mailing it to 690 Avon Belden Road, Avon Lake Ohio 44012.  If you make a payment late, please include your late fee or you will be billed. No credit is given for student absence or classes cancelled due to weather or power outages. (Students who miss class for any reason may attend any other class available in their age group as a make up class).  If you make your payments by mail, be certain to allow adequate time for mail delivery.  Thank you for your co-operation.

 Returned check fee is $35.00

 Any student with an overdue balance of more than 45 days will not be allowed into class until payment in full is received.  Overdue balances must be paid by cash, money order, or bank check.

 If you change your class style, add or delete a class or have any questions concerning the monthly charge, please feel free to call Brandie Andrews at 440.315.5678 or email AbsoluteDanceCompany@yahoo.com. 

 Please make up any missed class within one month of your absence if possible; no credit will be given for missed classes. Please see AbsoluteDanceCompany.com or ask an instructor for a schedule of classes offered in your age group.

The quality of our facility and faculty depends upon a system of mutual respect and cooperation.  We understand that anyone may make a late payment from time to time, but please be respectful of our late fee policy and when applicable, graciously include your late fee in your next payment.  Thank you!
